Hmmm… having read this twice my conclusion is this article does a fine job of satisfying the first two requirements of creating a rose garden: bullshit and bare dirt. The only player missing is Carlos Castenada, and if he’d been present at least the assembled group would have had the benefit of understanding that the inner reality where lives dreams and imaginings, memory and emotion, is actually larger than the outer or second reality shared by all creatures, the reality which is defined by being exactly the same for all the creatures who share it. These folks have a long way to go if they want to impress or intimidate me.
